TNN | Jan 22, 2016, 00:00 IST

The two couples — Vasant-Varsha and Ronnie-Lisa — in Badi Door Se Aaye Hain will be facing trouble in their relationships. Trouble strikes their paradise when Ronnie (Bhakhtyar Irani) gets in touch with his ex-girlfriend Nisha (Tapasya Naik) through a social networking site.
He gets hooked to chatting with her all day. This makes his wife, Lisa (Tannaz Irani) suspicious. She finds out about his secret rendezvous and confronts him, which is overheard by Vasant (Sumeet Raghavan) and Varsha (Rupali Bhosale).

Vasant irks his wife Varsha, when he unintentionally passes a remark, saying, 'Waah Ronnie ki toh nikal padi'. She misinterprets his intention and in a fit of rage, challenges him to woo a girl and make her confess her love for him.

Bhakhtyar says, "I am enjoying the current track. I guess all of us have this flirt within us in real life, but it subsides as it is all about responsibilities in the end. Ronnie is going through this phase too, where he is caught up between his wife Lisa and ex-girlfriend, Nisha." Badi Door Se Aaye Hain airs Monday to Friday at 9.30 pm on SAB TV.

National Award winning actress Sarika in &TV’s 'Darr Sabko Lagta Hai'

After making her television debut with Amitabh Bachchan starrer 'Yudh', Bollywood actress Sarika is set to be seen on the small screen once again.

The script of Soumik’s episode for 'Darr Sabko Lagta Hai' strangely reminded me of that film. So I immediately called up Sarikaji and she was onboard. The rest is history.”

Shiva cannot play Krishna: It seems like the broadcasters are mightier than the Gods on TV. How else does one explain the overnight backing out of Himanshu Soni, who was finalised to play Lord Krishna in Siddharth Kumar Tewary’s Suryaputra Karn? Here is what happened — Himanshu, currently seen as Shivaye (an avatar of Lord Shiva) in Neeli Chatri Wale, was roped in to play Lord Krishna in the mythological show Karn on a rival channel. While the actor was excited about the new venture, the channel airing Neeli Chatri Wale pulled the plug on it. “The channel objected to him taking up the role of another God on another GEC (General Entertainment Channel). This sudden development sent the makers of Karn in a tizzy as they had to burn the midnight oil to hunt for a replacement.” Says Himanshu, “I am already playing God in another daily and so was no allowed. I had no choice but to opt out of it. I could have managed both the shows, simultaneously.”

Krishna’s role has now gone to actor Saurabh Pandey, who was seen in the same production house’s Razia Sultan. He says, “I am playing a God’s character for the first time. I am a Krishna-bhakt and to portray Him is very difficult. Call it a coincidence or divine intervention as I bagged the role two days after my first visit to Vrindavan.”

Nikita Dutta out of Dream Girl: Nikita Dutta, who plays Lakshmi in Dream Girl, has quit the show. The reason that prompted her decision was the fact that the Shraddha Arya-Sudeep Sahir track was gaining prominence. Ask her about it and she replies, “My track was going nowhere, especially after my hero (Mohsin Khan) died in the show. I checked with the production house if something could have been done, but when they told me the further track would focus on other characters, I decided to call it a day. It was a mutual decision.” However, the actress isn’t upset with the shifting of the focus from her on to Shraddha. She says, “I am not someone who would fight with the team to increase my role. Maybe, the new track is for the betterment of the show. Everything has its time and I guess the expiry date for me has come on this project. I have gained a lot from it in the last 10 months. I took it up because I wanted to get comfortable with acting and it has made me fall in love with the profession.”

Hence the story brings together different people from diverse walks of life and how they interact and behave with one another,” the actor said.

According to a unit hand, the show is set to take a crucial turn and the actress is required in almost every frame.

This is not the first time the actress has resorted to these antics. She went to a Navratri event at a time when an important twist was to be shot. If this issue isn’t resolved, there are strong chances of her getting replaced after Diwali.” Ekta says, “I twisted my ankle and rested for three days as advised by my doctor. I have never let the shoot suffer. The only time I was missing was when I was down with a viral, which was a result of shooting continuous rain sequences in the show.”

Mita Vashisht: Everybody but the actor is acting on TV: We don’t get to see her enough on the small screen as she feels “TV is not an actor’s medium”. However, Mita Vasisht is back in action with Kaala Teeka. The show will see her slip effortlessly into the role of a strong and authoritative woman. Probe her about her disappearing act on TV, and she says, “This medium is more like a platform for talent hunt and reality shows. Nowadays, it’s all about the get-up, not performance. Who’s talking about acting anyway? Actors aren’t even captured in a manner where they can showcase their acting chops. The cameras do the work for the actor. Everybody but the actor is acting on TV. People don’t think out of the box or write unconventional roles, so there is no character on screen currently that I would like to play.” What prompted her to take up a show then? She says, “It is layered. She’s more desperate than negative; desperate to ensure that her authority is not challenged.” Doesn’t she feel that she has been typecast on TV as she is often seen playing a tyrant? “Yes, getting typecast tends to become boring. But that’s the impression I make on people. They feel that I have a strong and powerful personality,” she replies.

Hero No. 10 for Qubool Hai: Qubool Hai does it again! Breaking their own record of numerous replacements, new characters and seasons, the production house has now roped another male lead. Avinash Sachdev is hero number 10; his predecessors being Karan Singh Grover, Rishab Sinha, Vikrant Massey, Raqesh Vashisht, Karanvir Bohra, Shehzad Sheikh, Varun Toorkey, Rajbeer Singh and Ankit Raaj. The actor, who was last seen in Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon?... Ek Baar Phir, will be seen opposite protagonist Surbhi Jyoti. “My first question to them was why the show has had so many male leads,” he says, adding, “I took my time, but eventually accepted it as a challenge. I realised that some of them were really good and had to leave for various reasons. Besides, the show airs at 7.30 pm; one of my longest-running shows, Chhoti Bahu was in the same time slot. They have told me that they will revamp the story. It’s a nice character. Fortunately, I won’t be shown possessing supernatural powers like the current male lead. It will be a love story now; a new story with the same title. I have earlier taken the risk of shooting a show for which the title was decided later (Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon?). At least in this show, I know the title right from the beginning.” When asked if the show has run its course, Avinash disagrees, “That can’t hold true for a daily soap. It’s all about the script and chemistry between the lead couple. If the audience likes a track, the show runs for years. On the other hand, even if multiple tracks and twists don’t work in a show, it doesn’t last.” Incidentally, Rajbeer has been retained in the show.

But there is a justification for all his actions.” Doesn’t he ever feel like breaking away from his villain image? “I’m happy playing any role, though I prefer negative ones as it’s more fun and adds an edge to the character and the show. In fact, positive roles on TV are also stereotypical and unrealistically positive. Moreover, someone’s got to portray the flip side of things and I am happy doing that,” he replies.

Mouli says no to playing grown-up Karn’s mother, quits TV show: TV show 'Suryaputra Karn' has been in the news for its casting as much as for its content. After Gautam Rode being roped in to play the grown-up Karn (Aditya Redij was almost finalised for the part), it is time for yet another development in casting. Actress Mouli Ganguly, who essays Karn’s mother, has decided to quit the show. Reason? She doesn’t want to play Gautam’s mother. She has so far played mother to the youngest Karn, aged eight and then an 18-year-old.
Says the actress, “Originally, the focus of the show was on the teenage Karn and the grown-up one was supposed to come in for just about a month. However, the project underwent a lot of creative changes after I signed up, which I understand is for the show’s betterment. But I am not too comfortable with the idea of playing mother to someone my age and in this case, my contemporary. I was not prepared for it mentally. Had I been playing the central character and if the show had gone in for a time leap with my kids growing up, I would have continued. But I am not even the lead. My producer Siddharth Kumar Tewary understood my bone of contention and we parted amicably. I should be shooting my last episode in the next few days.”

Dimple: I was traumatised with the way my character was treated: When Dimple Jhangiani took up 'Tumhi Ho Bandu Sakha Tumhi' to play Avni, one of the many characters, she thought that she too would get equal screen space with others. But she ended up being disappointed as the track did not live up to her expectations. Unhappy about the same, she has quit the show. She rues, “I’m extremely hurt with the whole process of this show as they didn’t give chance for any character to grow. I was promised that all the tracks will be balanced equally, but felt cheated as I ended up being nothing more than a prop. I have done only lead roles in the past, but I wasn’t able to showcase my potential in this role and I under performed. I was traumatized with the way they treated the character. I was doing nothing but waiting for my track to take off for the past six months. I hardly had five scenes in the past four months. The stress took a toll on my health. I have never quit a show before, but my parents supported me in my decision. I’m now open to doing new shows and waiting for a good role to come my way.” So, when is her last day of the shoot? “I refused to shoot the closure scene of my character as I was really hurt and didn’t want to go on the set anymore. They called me two days this month and didn’t follow up with me later. All this, after blocking me for 22 days a month. I just told them to relieve me with immediate effect,” she sums up.

Till now, news was that Aditya Redij was finalised to play the grown-up Karn. However, the production house has now roped in Gautam Rode for the role. He will be entering the show post the second time leap. Incidentally, Gautam was the original choice for the role, but the deal didn’t materialise back then. Says a source, “Since he was shooting for 'Mahakumbh' at that time, he didn’t have dates for the show. It was only when the producers went back to their original choice, did the actor give his nod to the project.” Gautam confirms, “I believe in playing different characters and Karn is different from the ones I have played so far. Also, I like the fact that it’s a finite series like my previous show 'Mahakumbh'. I am looking forward to being seen in a different avatar.” Interestingly, Gautam happens to be the only actor on the small screen, predominantly a woman’s medium, who has played three title roles — Saraswatichandra, Rudra (Mahakumbh) and now Karn — in a row.
